Bach - Ein Weihnachtswunder (2024)
Leipzig, december 1734: Kerstmis brengt de familie Bach bijeen. De eerste sneeuw is gevallen en de kinderen Gottfried en Elisabeth zijn dolblij met de komst van hun oudere broers Friedemann en Emanuel. De Thomaskantor heeft zich teruggetrokken in zijn muziekkamer. Anna Magdalena steunt haar man, want er zijn nog maar een paar dagen te gaan en zijn nieuwste werk, het zesdelige "Weihnachtsoratorium", moet op tijd af zijn. Het wordt met argwaan tegemoetgezien door de gemeenteraad en de heren van de kerkenraad, die Bachs eigenzinnigheid al lang als een doorn in het oog beschouwen en vrezen dat de Thomaskirche na de première van de Matthäus-Passion enkele jaren eerder weer vol zal staan met "operamuziek". Johann Sebastian Bach hoopt met het oratorium eindelijk hofcomponist in Dresden te worden. En zoals altijd eist hij dat alle familieleden de handen ineenslaan om hem te helpen. Maar meningsverschillen vertragen de voltooiing van Bachs beroemdste werk steeds meer.
